Can any one help to advise how to convert Unicode(e.g.UTF-16/8) to EBCDIC in cobol PGM?
I knew we can use NATIONAL-OF/DISPLAY OF to convert EBCDIC to Unicode in COBOL PGM. But how to do with UTF-> EBCDIC.
Thanks a lot for your help? |

From the COBOL Programming Guide manual (link at the top of the page), section 1.7:
| Quote: |
| DISPLAY-OF to convert a national character string to USAGE DISPLAY in a selected code page (EBCDIC, ASCII, EUC, or UTF-8) |
Use the second parameter of DISPLAY-OF to specify the EBCDIC code page. |

Hello,
I came across a lot of UTF-8 to ebcdic conversion lately and I successfully used the below statement to convert a UTF-8 variable to EBCDIC data.
| Code: |
MOVE FUNCTION DISPLAY-OF (FUNCTION NATIONAL-OF
(UTF8-VARIABLE , 1208), 500)
TO EBCDIC-VARIABLE |
Please let us know if it works for you.
-Rakesh. |
